Default Air/Fuel gauge rewiring for b18c swap in a EK????

I recently did a motor swap and I need to rewire my Autometer Air/Fuel gauge. My engine is an OBD1 ecu. I reused my OBD2 Civic EX engine harness. Where do i need to rewire the gauge? Does it need to go directly into the ECU?

honestly, i would just get rid of it. A/F guages are worthless and do not read correctly. the only ones that are accurate are the new o2 wideband ones like the new aem eugo guage.

The autometer works just fine unless you are making some serious HP to the wheels. I'm not right now so i'll just stick with what i have.
